The image shows a half-body portrait of an older man facing slightly to his left and looking at the viewer. He wears round spectacles, a headscarf, a coat, and a neckerchief. The man's expression is neutral. He is not holding any objects and wears no visible jewelry. The background is a dark, plain surface and the portrait is surrounded by an ornate border with floral and column motifs. — Jean Baptiste Simeon Chardin
